In the episode of the same name, Dipper and Wendy are seen playing the game at the arcade until Robbie confronts them and takes Dipper's place, saying that he's just "spending some time with his girlfriend." After the teen challenges Dipper to a fight for breaking his phone, Dipper brings Rumble McSkirmish to life to defend him, though his plan goes awry when Rumble tries to destroy Robbie.
Season 2[]
In "Soos and the Real Girl", Soos runs past a copy of a home version in the game store before spotting the sale bin.
